Each of these accounts is separate and adding an event to any of them does not mean they get added to all the others, its just merely displayed on the ipad calendar. Similar to the unified inbox in the mail app. Nobody else with access to your work account can see the other accounts, just because they are all displayed on the ipad.

The only thing you have to worry about is which one is your default account, because that is the one new events you create will be added to, so you will probably not want this as your work account.

Thanks for the terrific reply

You are right about the lotus notes being the work account

I have set my hotmail as default for now ..so you are right there as well

Having agree to all that, why isn't it showing a share / don't share button or Private / not private button on each calendar ?

Only the icloud calendar can be set to be shared from within the ipad calendar app.

The hotmail and gmail accounts would be setup for sharing via their account logins at hotmailcom and google.com. You would have to have set this up, so unless somebody else has your login details, by default they should not be shared with anybody else.

Thanks again.

No one else has my hotmail / gmail login passwords ...

my bet is that your lotus notes account was set up to share when it was created.

if you have created your hotmail, gmail account you should be safe - they shouldn't be shared with anyone unless you set it up that way.

if you care about birthdays being on the correct day, whatever you do, don't sync your iPhone with Outlook contacts and the hotmail connecter. after a few syncs, the date starts sliding. something to do with it being an all-day event and Apple not fixing the code for this combination.

it's infuriating and I finally gave up and just added iCloud into my Outlook folders and started using iCloud for contact synching, loathe as I am to go that route.
